Harding Tree Expert-"Serving the Shore over 40 years!"


Harding Tree Expert, founded 1981 in Royal Oak, MD by Clyde “Pop” Harding Jr and wife Nancy. Clyde began his work in the tree industry at the very young age of 15 years old for his father, Clyde Harding, Sr in Bethlehem, MD and has continued for many years thereafter.


We like to refer to him as “The Godfather of trees”- he knew most everything about any and all trees. He loved trees and so do we!


Over the last 40 years Clyde and his crews have been fortunate enough to have maintained the treescapes on numerous Talbot county large, upscale estates, along with residential and commercial properties.


After his retirement in 2020, Harding Tree Expert is now operated by his son Joey and wife Tanya, along with the grandchildren. We are proudly, now a 4th generation local, family owned and operated business.


We also have extensive knowledge/experience when it comes to state and county regulations: 

  • Critical Area
  • Buffer Zone Area
  • SBMP/PMP
  • Mitigation Planning
